Good luck!

Final

Peterborough - 0
Oshawa - 2

No points for Laughton, with possible suspension coming

Oshawa leads the series 2 - 0

I thought it was a good first period, kept the Sabres out of the middle of the ice in their offensive zone.

Know I beat this drum before, but it really is poopty seeing Couturier always in be put in a shutdown mode/role.

Have my doubts about it helping him develop an offensive game if he is always doing that.

Meh. No ones telling him not to score goals.

Apparently, Andrew MacDonald is a tremendous defenseman, and his name not being mentioned for the Norris trophy is an insult

What did he do now?
- MBFlyerfan

Wasn't a good view on camera (was late showing it).....it was called butt-ending.

Another sleepy period by the captain.....wow.....somebody should check him for a pulse....and man when Hartnell struggles Berube can't keep him on the line and the first pp....the d part of game was solid...thank god.

Other teams top lines aren't usually great defenders, Coots should be able to generate some offense against these guys. Especially with Read and Downie or Raffle.

I like his game.....not sure he's 5 mil good...but he's played solid since arriving...

if someone MADE me bet and said "one team is kicking the shyt out of their lesser opponent and one team is barely beating their lesser opponent' i would have to bet on it not being the flyers that were steamrolling a bad team.....

No one labeled him a tremendous defenseman. But he is also not a player that can be easily replaced in Free Agency by a cheaper player. I hope the Flyers aren't that foolish to believe that.

I think Coots and Read have been generating offense, but unfortunately not scoring goals.

I agree. I've heard rumors saying that he wants 4 years, $20m+....if that's true, I'd rather go after a Hainsey or Stralman. Either of them will give you similar levels of play and likely cost less.

It's not a knock on MacDonald. I think he's been solid, despite what the stats say. But I'm not really interested in another 4/5 guy, if he's making more than Coburn.

He needs to move his feet in the ozone to be effective...it's in there somewhere....his o talent that is.

I was curious as to what FA Dman are as good and as young?

Actually he is. I provided the names of two UFAs that are likely to cost less that are also solid 4/5 defensemen. Not too hard to visit capgeek and check it out.

Read now has 21 goals on the year. That is exceptional for a player in the role he is in.

- flyer_nutter

What if I told you it's possible to shut down and play offense at the same time?

Whoa, wouldn't go anywhere near that far, but I think MacDonald has done good job and Im not sure they will find anyone much better in free agency.

I have little interest in Hainsey at this point in his career. Pretty sure Morin will get his stage addition early next season, and we'll see what happens after that. IMHO, a lot hinges on whether Kimmo comes back next season and how the top 6 will be shaped. I think Kimmo comes back, Berube has done a nice job of not running him into the ground.

Actually he's not. Just looking at Capgeek and comparing two different players salaries, doesn't mean that player is as good of a player. That is subjective.
